Stop carrying yum groups inside tree (comps.xml) #62

Closed sshimko closed 5 years ago

sshimko commented 8 years ago

We should not be carrying a static comps.xml and using it for everything. Each repo might have a comps file. We need to figure out how to handle this via configuration, or preferably, discovering the comps. Each time we run createrepo, we should refer to a comps from the previous repo, if available, not a snapshot of the upstream comps that might not even relate to the repo in question.

Note - the reason this hasn't been an issue until now is that we've exhaustively listed packages and tried to avoid groups all together. But to become a more flexible integration system, we need to address this.

The comps.xml in-tree is only used when a comps.xml is not found in the yum repos.
